2012 Map of Jet

About this map

The town of Jet serves as the focal point of this Alfalfa County study, situated just south of the sprawling Great Salt Plains Reservoir. The landscape is defined by the hydrologic network of Spring Cr, Twin Spring Cr, and Wagon Cr that drains toward the reservoir's marshy edges. In the northeastern corner, the Kegelman Air Force Auxiliary Field marks a significant military presence, with a detailed grid of access roads like p10 RD and p11 RD serving the facility. For those tracing local history and family lineages, several burial grounds are scattered throughout the rural sections, including Pleasant View Cem north of town and Milan Valley Cem to the southeast. The map reflects a typical Great Plains agricultural layout, where the section-line road system creates a rigid framework for the homesteads and farms surrounding the central hub of Jet.
